How do BINAURAL beats work?

When two signals of different frequencies are presented, one to each ear, the brain detects phase differences between these signals. “Under natural circumstances a detected phase difference provides directional information. The brain processes this anomalous information differently when these phase differences are heard with headphones.

As a result of the constantly increasing and decreasing differences, an amplitude modulated wave-the binaural beat – is heard. The binaural beat is perceived as a fluctuating rhythm at the frequency of the difference between the two auditory inputs.

In a few words, those two signals produce the sensation of a third one

Evidence suggests that the binaural beats are generated in the brainstem superior olivary nucleus, the first site of contralateral integration in the auditory system. Studies also suggest that the frequency of follow-up response is originated in the inferior colliculus. This activity is performed in which the cortex can be recorded by scalp electrodes
